Upside-down logic in the land down under -- Internationally known racist, war criminal, Iraqi holocaust denier and coward prime minister of Australia, John Howard stated that [black] entertainer Snoop Dogg had been banned from entering Australia for “sound reasons … I have to be careful what I say in these matters but he has been ... well there are certain judgments that are made on certain advice that I can't go into, but the reasons for banning him are sound," said Howard. Perhaps the black rapper is also a HIV carrier and votes Democrat! Howard recently levelled more criticism on US Democrats in relation to the war in Iraq. The absurdity and hypocrisy of Howard’s behaviour is reaching levels unimagined by even his most fervent critics.
Howard had the audacity to compare Mr Dogg’s case to that of David Irving, who was refused entry on the basis that he denied the Jewish holocaust! Howard, who is complicit in the deaths of over half a million civilians in Iraq refuses to accept responsibility for his part in the Iraqi holocaust. Howard is in no position to accuse anyone of character flaws, especially holocaust denial! "There's always been a character issue in relation to people being given visas. I mean that was the issue that was in part behind the refusal to give a visa to David Irving, the holocaust denier," Howard said to Southern cross media.
It is clear that Howard’s denial surpasses that of David Irving’s. Referring to black rapper Snoop Dogg Howard continued, "why should somebody like this, who's got a particular background, [African] be allowed into the country." During Howard’s tenure in office he has put Australia on the international map for all the wrong reasons two of which were the Cronulla race riots and racist immigration policies.
Howard who is under pressure from a local opposition leader has said and done nothing right the entire year. After his inane criticism of Barack Obama and his latest meddling in US politics, the Snoop Dogg visa denial is totally in character. A local embarrassment and international laughing stock, Howard provides yet more evidence that he has ‘lost it’.

Don't want to defend the Howard administration, but the reasons for the Snoop Dogg banning do not seem quite so complex or conspiracy theorist as you propose. He's been convicted for drugs and gun offences, which was the same reason he was barred from the UK. I think it's good that governments stick to a rule and don't give celebrities extra leeway because they are celebrities.
